Mike Leach made it clear after Mississippi State’s win over Tulsa on Thursday that he was not overly concerned about the massive brawl that broke out between the two teams. Apparently he had the same attitude as the mayhem was unfolding, too.

A wild fight broke out (video here) moments after Mississippi State put the finishing touches on its 28-26 win. Leach initially may not have even noticed what was happening, as the Bulldogs coach was on the opposite side of the field posing for photos with fans.

No wonder Leach had so a nonchalant reaction to the brawl. He downplayed it after the game and made some remarks that probably won’t sit well with Mississippi State administrators.

The brawl was far more than a shoving match. One Mississippi State player kicked a Tulsa player in the head and ran away, and he seemed proud of it.
